Interesting problem.

One thing to try (security issues notwithstanding) is to grant access to
the appropriate windows services in the "Un-registered" role. This is
the first role a user is put into before they actually authenticate.

Maybe windows authentication is sufficient, and adding the appropriate
policy to the "Un-registered" role would be ok. Your call.

We do not have a campus wide windows authentication policy. Maybe that's
why we do not hear of any complaints on this.

We have been testing the Bluesocket wireless authentication gateway
which uses a web intercept model for authentication purposes.  We have
had some complaints from windows users because they cannot connect to
network drives (windows attempts this connection at startup) because
they still have to authenticate.  We have also had issues authenticating
a new user using windows domains since the computer cannot see the
network domain itself without first being authenticated (not an issue if
it's been cached).  Has anyone else experienced this or have some type
of work around?
